Cause of Maui Fire Under Investigation.

An Oceanview Estates home on Maui was fully engulfed in flames this morning, and Hawaii News Now is reporting that sources near the scene of the fire say they heard gunshots prior to the fire. The station says there are unconfirmed reports that Maui police were dispatched to a home on Kakae Place about 6:30 a.m. for a man possibly with a shotgun. When fire crews arrived, they couldn't get close enough to extinguish the flames because the gunman had not been neutralized.
